Sloth-ninja gives review templates their own workspace

The fork separates reusable review layouts from assistant workflows, making templates easier to find, share and apply without moving existing work.

workflowknowledge-management

Templates now have a dedicated home where teams can browse their own layouts, items shared with them, firm-wide options and built-in starting points. Existing templates carry over automatically.

Save a review's column layout as a reusable template, while leaving its cell contents behind.
Start a new review from a template or apply one to an existing review, with the existing warning that it replaces columns and clears cells.
Edit, rename, duplicate, hide or share templates according to ownership and firm permissions.
Give firm administrators a view of firm-shared templates and a way to return one to private use.

The fork also keeps the important guardrails visible: templates need at least one column, failures offer a retry, and hidden built-ins can be restored.

So what Legal-ops teams standardising repeatable reviews should care: this turns templates from a workflow side feature into a clearer shared operating asset.

SHA	Subject	Author	Date
`d8d88f5a`	Review templates frontend: Templates surface, editor and pickers	sloth-ninja	2026-08-05	↗ GitHub
commit body Frontend half of the Review templates train (plan Task 4), consuming the /tabular-templates routes from #74. Builds all five spec surfaces: - Templates page (/review-templates): My templates / Shared with me / Firm templates / Built-in, per-ownership row menus, Firm badge, error+retry gate - Template editor (/review-templates/[id], plus a client-side draft at /new because the server requires at least one column), reusing AddColumnModal and columnFormat as the workflow editor does - Save as template from a review grid's header menu, with a success notice linking to the Templates page - Pickers relabelled "Start from a template" / "Apply template", now listing mine + shared + firm + built-in; Workflows page drops tabular rows and gains a pointer line - Admin Firm-templates card with per-item revert (spec surface 5) Gates: tsc clean; lint identical to the stashed baseline (112 problems, zero new); next build succeeds with both new routes. No prettier --write. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
`8f87aa94`	Address review of #76: editor key, keyboard guard, column-save rollback	sloth-ninja	2026-08-05	↗ GitHub
commit body Should-fixes: - key={id} on TemplateEditor so state re-initialises per template segment (fixes built-in -> Duplicate -> Back stale content and the post-create read-only flash) - stopPropagation on the row actions cell's onKeyDown, so Enter/Space on the menu trigger opens the menu instead of navigating the row - column auto-save now snapshots the previous columns and rolls back on failure with an inline error, mirroring the admin card's pattern Nits: TemplateRow/Section moved to module scope; Duplicate failures surface the server detail at both sites; the four flagged error sites use the house `err instanceof MikeApiError && err.message` pattern so network TypeErrors never render as user copy; save-notice timer cleared on unmount and replaced on re-save; "Search templates..." ellipsis. MFA gating for template admin-revert is out of scope here (follow-up PR); the admin card copy is unchanged. Gates: tsc clean; lint 112 problems, identical to stashed baseline; build clean with both new routes. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
